Why Woman Who Claims Dissociative Identity Disorder Says People Are Scared Of Her

“This disorder has jeopardized every relationship or ruined it; everyone runs away from me. People are scared of me,” claims Jerica, who says she was diagnosed this past summer with Dissociative Identity Disorder.

She claims there are 10 or more different personas or “programs,” each of which, she says serves a specific purpose; either protecting her or helping her to function day-to-day.

On Tuesday’s Dr. Phil, the 27-year-old discusses several of her alternate personas, including one she calls Cleo.

“Cleo, the most powerful program, usually scares a guy if I’m in a relationship and they end up blocking me and running away,” says Jerica, explaining that Cleo is an Ancient Egyptian, who she claims has supernatural powers.
